debrief

debrief is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tslateman/duet. It costs 13 tokens per session (303 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review of work completed by coding agents or across multiple work sessions. It checks commits, uncommitted changes, stashes, unfinished tasks, and possible overlaps before the work is handed over.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to summarize what landed, identify unfinished or overlapping work, inspect repository status and recent commits, and produce concrete next steps for consolidation.
Why use it?
It makes loose ends visible, including changes that were never committed, TODOs, stale references, or conflicting edits. This reduces the chance of declaring a project finished when important work is still pending.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

debrief scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Agent Debrief

Overview

Consolidate work done by agents or across sessions. Review what landed and what's still open.

1. Recent Commits

Check what actually shipped:

git log --oneline -15 --all --decorate

Note any commits from agents or parallel work streams.

2. Work In Progress

Check for uncommitted changes or stashed work:

git status --short
git stash list

3. Synthesis

Produce a brief debrief:

What Landed

  • Summarize completed work (be specific, name files, features, fixes)

Loose Ends

  • Uncommitted work that needs attention
  • Agent work that wasn't fully integrated
  • TODOs or FIXMEs introduced

Connections

  • Note any overlap or conflicts between parallel work streams
  • Flag if multiple changes touched the same files

Next Actions

  • Concrete steps to consolidate or continue the work

Keep it actionable. Skip anything that's already clean and integrated.

See Also

The post-agent triad: debrief recaps what got done, the other two check it.

  • /sweep: post-op check for artifacts, damage, and stale refs left behind
  • /agent-watchdog: audit whether an agent did what was asked, with a gap report and a narrow fix
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
